On the sidelines of the UNGA, PM Nawaz will attend a global leaders' meeting on gender equality and women empowerment organised by China and UN women, according to Radio Pakistan.
However, no meeting between PM Nawaz and his Indian counterpart Narendra Modi has been scheduled as yet and no request has been received from the other side either.
Further, the premier is scheduled to attend receptions to be hosted separately by the UN secretary general and the US president in honour of heads of states.
